The wheel's integrity has been compromised and a failure could be catastrophic, be safe out there. 
I can relate to this same experience, albeit in much less expensive car. I swerved to avoid one pothole which led me into a series of others in the next lane. had to get both right side wheels re-trued and both front tires replaced since the right front was pinched. This was only on my Mazdaspeed 3, gotta love Newark roads. |
You bring up great points. I admit I had not thought about it that way. And I do plan on tracking it. In fact, I’m at the track now. I was planning on bringing the 458. But I’m in the 911, which I’m ultimately glad about.
That said, I’m am thinking about fixing, but also getting a whole new set anyway. I’ve had a few recommendations from people and I’ve seen a few wheels that are really nice. Sadly, they are also extremely expensive. But I suppose that’s to me expected.
Even as I write this though, I’m thinking the best solution might simply be to have Ferrari swap out the damaged wheel during the scheduled service which just happens to be this week.
